Chapter 83: Fierce Slaughter

  Big Mac

  This is the third day.

  The war is still ongoing, but what's different is that today's city walls are still crowded, yet unusually quiet. Chen Le and Aiguo stood at the top of a tall tower, below which were twenty-five people standing in a neat row. These twenty-five people were all dressed in black, with long swords on their backs and two short daggers hanging from their waists, shining with cold light.

  Aegwyn's body trembled, he wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry now. He held back his tears and said loudly: "I have remembered your names and addresses, just go with peace of mind! If you die in battle unfortunately, I will take care of the livelihood of your families! If there are still survivors, I will personally ask His Majesty to grant you a title!" Then Aegwyn walked behind Chen Le, and tears began to flow out.

  Chen Le took a step forward and threw the wine jug in his hand downwards. The wine jug formed a parabola flying towards that group of young thieves and warriors.

  A thief jumped up and caught the wine jug, then looked at Chen Le. Chen Le let out a long sigh and said: "This is my carefully brewed medicinal wine. After you drink it, you will lose all sense of pain within thirty minutes. This is also the last thing I can give to you."

  Young suicide squads bowed respectfully, then shouted loudly: "Thank you, Officer Egwene! Thank you, Master Arthur! We will absolutely shed the last drop of human blood!"

  "Alright, let's go! Remember to be careful and once we're outside, prioritize your life above all else!"

  "Yes, Master Arthur!"

  Egbert wiped away his own tears, then stood up and shouted loudly: "There are only three minutes until dawn. At that time, most of the nocturnal monsters will return to their nests. The daytime monsters have just come out, and the Evil Eyes, which are your targets, also have the weakest defensive power at this time. This is your best chance! Come on!"

  The suicide squads stood upright, then lowered their right hands vertically and placed their left hands horizontally on their chests, shouting in unison: "Willing to shed the last drop of blood for humanity!"

  "Well, this is really the final farewell, take care!" Chen Le waved his hand, with a hint of tears in the corner of his eyes.

  "Open the city gate! Soldiers defend against the monsters outside with all your might! Buy time for the suicide squad!" The soldiers at the city gate yelled at the soldiers on the city wall, gripping their weapons tightly and ready to respond to the monsters hiding at the city gate.

  "Wooo..." The city gate let out a series of mournful wails.

  "Roar!" A beast hidden beneath the earth burst through the thin layer of soil, which looked fresh and showed that they had absorbed enough nutrients.

  A soldier picked up the long spear in his hand and aimed at a monster similar to an ant. The soldier was lucky, the part of the spear that hit the monster was its abdomen, which was the weak point of the monster. Yellow liquid flowed out along the spear, but this yellow liquid had obvious corrosive properties. The spear vaporized instantly and flew into the air, and the soldier quickly let go of the spear and sighed in relief, grateful to still be alive.

  "Ahh!" A sturdy arm swung from behind the soldier. Before he could even react, his head was severed. His body lost balance due to the loss of its head, and blood spurted out of his neck like a fountain.

  That monster was a creature that looked like a mantis, of unknown rank, estimated to be around level three. The monster licked its arm covered in blood, and a smile of pleasure floated on its face.

  The warrior beside the soldier was enraged, he let out a loud roar and swung his sword at the monster with all his might. The monster reacted quickly, using its two arms to cross-block the warrior's angry blow.

  Green blood flowed out, a sneer appeared on the face of the demon beast, and then it kicked away the warrior who had lost his center of gravity with its leg.

  The warrior was knocked flying out, and as if that wasn't enough, his head hit a protruding rock, taking a heavy blow and passing out. The mantis-like creature drooled as it walked towards the unconscious warrior, green blood splattering everywhere.

  "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several feathered arrows were stuck in the body of that praying mantis-like demon beast, which fell to the ground with a face full of resentment and anger.

  "Hurry up and pull those unconscious people in! The suicide squad has gone out, we continue to fight for their chance! Open fire!" a soldier-like captain roared.

  "Boom! Boom! Boom!" The cannon shook the sky, 50 cm radius shells hit the ground and formed one crater after another, one monster after another fell to the ground.

  Those evil eyes finally couldn't bear it anymore, they all appeared at the same time

  He commanded the giant-headed apelike demons beside him to hurl massive boulders at the city walls.

  A group of crimson-colored demons behind them seemed to be chanting something. Their mouths kept moving, and the stones that were thrown out started to emit flames.

  Some stones soon landed on the city wall, and many soldiers were blown away, constantly falling under the city wall, and then became a puddle of minced meat.

  However, a fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the soldiers on the city wall, who shouted loudly as catapults and cannons continuously spat out angry flames.

  The squad saw the evil eye appear and they took the pills given by Chen Le, then drank a big mouthful of medicinal wine, grabbed their knives and rushed out without looking back.

  Twenty-five blue rays of light appeared on the battlefield, and the soldiers on the city wall shouted: "Cover the death squad! Archers! Prepare! Shoot!"

  Pairs of human soldiers drew their bows and arrows in unison, releasing the taut strings in their hands one after another with the commander's order.

  Arrows fell like rain, this time the number of bows and arrows was at least tens of thousands. These tens of thousands of arrows were like harbingers of death, constantly piercing one monster's body after another.

  The blue light soon came into contact with the monster squad, and the outermost monsters were a group of hard-shelled monsters, but their movements were really too slow. The death squad members quickly broke through the defenses of these seemingly strong monsters.

  Chen Le saw this scene and couldn't help but feel a little proud, he said to Aegwynn: "This is the strengthened medicine I made with great effort, it can increase a person's speed by 50%, strength by 100%, and physical recovery by five times! And it will also seize the vitality of the magic beasts they killed to recover their own vitality. Moreover, there will be some crazy effects."

  These death squads lived up to their reputation as crack troops, and while dodging the hail of arrows they continued to hunt down those evil eyes.

  The number of evil eyes decreased at a visible speed, and the humans on the city wall cheered continuously, while organizing a team to attract the attention of the magic beast.

  However, things didn't go smoothly. A member of the death squad was caught by a furious beast behind the Evil Eye's back while he was cutting open the Evil Eye's body.

  The enraged beast let out a loud roar and split the hapless member of the death squad in two, the most frightening thing was that the squad member had not died yet, the enraged beast directly swallowed the upper half of his body.

  The other members of the doomed squad were furious - they had been drinking and eating together just last night, but now they were completely separated in life and death.

  Anger may enhance some strength, but what is lost far outweighs what is gained, especially in a situation where calmness is desperately needed.

  Chen Le looked at the city gate where the troops had already been organized and shouted: "Everyone go to meet the Decisive Battle Team members! Whoever can be saved is a gain!"

  The troops marched out in a mighty stream, each carrying a large shield, then dozens of people wrapped around in a circle, and they walked out slowly.

  The casualties of the suicide squad began to increase, and by the time the current army arrived, ten had been killed in action.

  The army's ploy was successful, and most of the besieged Death Knights' minions began to attack the army.

  But the physical gap between humans and beasts was too great, and many formations began to collapse under the beast's desperate impact. Then they became the beast's dinner.

  However, their mission was perfectly completed, and all the remaining members of the suicide squad returned successfully.

  The troops at the front line fought until they could no longer move, and then formed a long snake-shaped array to snipe at the magical beasts. The troops behind them retreated back to McPhee's Castle with reluctance and anger.

  Egwen looked at the remaining fifteen battered members of the Death Squad and let out a long sigh, saying: "The cost this time is really too great. Ten good guys and a bunch of soldiers outside in exchange for the death of a hundred evil eyes, I hope their lives can be worthy of these fallen heroes!"

  Chen Le patted each of them on the shoulder and said: "Your mission is complete, let's go. Go to a safe place!"

  Those members of the suicide squad made a stunning move, they collectively knelt down and loudly said: "Please let me stay! I want to fight with that group of damn monsters here!"

  Aegwen picked up the already prepared wine, took a big gulp, and then said: "Good! You are all real humans! Although I know some of you had bad reputations in the past! But that's just the past! It won't affect your current identity! Remember! You are now human! And humans fighting against foreign tribes! Down this cup! Then rest well, continue tomorrow!"
